TicketCategory
IMPORTANT The SOAP API entered a limited enhancement phase in Q4 2020. Access to version 1.6 will be deactivated.
This entity describes a ticket category applied to tickets in Autotask to specify features and fields that appear on the ticket detail.
In Autotask, you can create ticket categories that are identified as API-Only. Such ticket categories are hidden everywhere you select a ticket category when you create or edit a ticket; they are only used when tickets are created via the API. Refer to API-only Ticket Categories.
